Dude, I never would have suspected that Daniel Bejar was a Riler, 'til I saw him on the cover of Fader.
Dude, I'm so sick of these Riker's on Myspace asking me to be friends with their shitty experimental bands. gawd.

Riker (Noun): The act of nonchalantly throwing one's leg over an obstacle in the process of taking a seat. Used to communicate sexy command as well as athletic ability.
From Screen Rant: While most people would simply pull out a freestanding chair and sit down normally, Riker instead tended to approach the chair from behind and throw one leg over the back of it, usually causing him to sit straddling the chair for the rest of the scene.
The former lieutenant-commander of the U.S.S. Enterprise, and now captain of the U.S.S. Titan, Riker served under Jean-Luc picard for many years. He is very unorthodox, and is married to Deanna Troi.
Jean-Luc Picard: I've just been paid a visit from Q.

Riker nods
William T. Riker: I'll alert the crew.

Euphemism for a moment in time (typically in pop culture) where something or someone that was lackluster and/or underachieving suddenly and surprisingly became much better and exciting. Taken from Star Trek - The Next Generation, which many fans considered wanting until Commander Riker grew a beard at the start of Season Two, after which the show was solid and well-received for the rest of its run.
"Heather Locklear joining the cast of Melrose Place was that show's Riker's Beard moment."
"Ben Cherrington (Boston Red Sox GM) trading expensive malcontents like Carl Crawford and Josh Beckett to the LA Dodgers was a Riker's Beard for his career (and the Red Sox) if ever I saw one."
"Little did the New England Patriots know it at the time, but when Mo Lewis knocked Drew Bledsoe out in Week 2 of 2001, it would become a Riker's Beard for the franchise."
"The fact that Danny Ainge (Boston Celtics GM) turned getting boned in the 2008 NBA Draft Lottery into a Riker's Beard is still staggering to me."
